Epidermal inclusion cysts are common lesions that rarely develop into squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Neoplastic change in these cysts can be associated with prominent symptoms such as pain, rapid growth, or ulceration. This study describes the case of a 64-year-old woman with a 4-year history of a largely asymptomatic neck mass, which after routine excision was found to be an epidermal inclusion cyst harboring well-differentiated SCC. The diagnosis was made incidentally after routine cyst bisection and hematoxylin and eosin staining. Given the potential for variable presentation and low cost of hematoxylin and eosin analysis, we recommend a low threshold for a comprehensive pathological search for malignancy in excised cysts when appropriate.

The Common

ABSTRACT Epidermal inclusion cyst (EIC) is one of the common conditions usually associated with trauma. This cyst commonly presents on the scalp, face, neck, trunk, and extremities. Epidermal inclusion cyst is believed to originate through implantation of epidermal element by either surgical or accidental trauma into deeper mesenchymal tissue and its subsequent cystic transformation. The EICs are indolent in nature, slow to progress, and remain asymptomatic unless secondarily infected. The authors report a case of EIC that occurred in a 35-year-old female after surgery of squamous cell carcinoma. How to cite this article Bhandarwar AU, Patel S, Pathak J, Swain N, Gandevivala A.

We present a case of a 64-year-old man who presented with a rapidly growing tumor in the left buttock and intergluteal cleft area, which was affected by hidradenitis suppurativa. The patient was on tumor necrosis factor-alpha inhibitors for hidradenitis suppurativa for 2 years prior to the development of the mass. Initial biopsy of the mass showed a well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma with spindle cells and positive epithelial immunomarkers. Subsequent excisional biopsy of the tumor showed an infiltrating poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma composed of islands of atypical sarcomatoid spindle cells. Squamous cell carcinoma arising in hidradenitis suppurativa is a rare complication which may occur secondary to chronic inflammation and epidermal hyperproliferation in hidradenitis suppurativa–affected areas.
